United Way of Greater Knoxville
We Help People
United Way of Greater Knoxville acts in solidarity with the region’s people, businesses, nonprofits, and civic leaders to create a more equitable Knoxville — a community where neighbors have stable housing, financial security, quality early care and education, access to food, and more.
We are excited about the year ahead and need the support of our entire Knoxville community to make these ambitious goals a reality.
The Changemobile will take UWGK deeper into the community by offering counsel, information, and education. The Changemobile will be the central positive change agent for the region.
The UpWard Summit will be the largest-ever gathering of nonprofits in the region. It will empower nonprofits and local organizations to share best practices, learn from each other, and inform the vision of what Knoxville can become.
The social hackathons are a series of community-driven social innovation events. They will give Knoxville organizations, individuals, nonprofits, and local businesses the opportunity to unite in partnership to design solutions that address our most pressing community issues.
